Whenever Oprah Winfrey struts on the red carpet, or graces the cover of O magazine, her style always comes off as effortless. Always classic and always timeless, this media tycoon rarely takes unflattering risks, and always looks like a billion dollar bill. "How does she do it?" we ask ourselves. How does "O" shine on and off the red carpet and pull it off with such finesse?

If you've ever pondered this question, then meet the mastermind behind Oprah's chic wardrobe--none other than celebrity stylist, Luke Destin. He is the very man responsible for styling Oprah for her signature "O" Magazine covers, and making her look "red carpet fabulous."

A true curator of style, Luke Destin took the time to share in his area of expertise, and even brings BV on Style inside Oprah's closet.

How did you begin your career as Oprah's stylist?
My mother went to school with Oprah, and it was through her that we met. I styled Oprah for one of the covers for "O" Magazine a few years ago, and have been styling her for all of her covers ever since.

What is it like working with Oprah?
It's amazing. I have been doing it for a long time. Oprah is a wonderful lady, and because of who she is, it is very easy to get clothes for her.

What approach do you take when styling her?
Usually, I pull some looks together for her, and we discuss them. It's easy to style Oprah in nothing but the best because all of the designers are always willing to make anything that she wants, or create looks catered to her. So it's very easy to keep her looking good every day. Honestly, it takes a village, buy you know what, we get it done, and she always looks fabulous.

How would you describe her personal style?
Oprah is conservative chic. Her style is classic, clean, never too over the top.

If I were to peek inside Oprah's closet, what would I find there?
She adores designers such as Narcisco Rodriquez, Valentino, and Oscar [de la Renta], so you would definitely find some staple pieces from those designers in there. Oprah is also a big fan of Tory Burch as well.

What is one of Oprah's signature pieces?
A simple black dress--I say that because you can re-create it and make it yours. She loves that. And like Oprah, mix the simple black dress with ornate accessories and dress it up.

What is one style that you would like to see more women adopt?
Every woman should have a simple black heel, that way you can re-create it and make it yours.

What trend do you wish would just go away?
Leggings! I think that leggings are so over rated. We've been doing the leggings for so many years, and I am over them right now.

What's next for you?
Well, being that Oprah is going to retire in 2011, I will probably start working on some of my own fashion pursuits, and maybe start my own fashion label, because I will finally have some free time!
